Jeff Patterson on Finding Your Big Thing and Letting Go of Limiting Beliefs

Greg talks with Jeff Patterson, success and leadership coach and author of The Big Thing Effect, about the climb that changed his life. On summit day on Aconcagua, after 14 days on the mountain and roughly 10 hours of sleep, Jeff watched a climber fall to his death in front of him and had to decide whether to turn around or keep going toward the man he knew he was capable of being. The two of them trained and climbed together for years, and they trade stories from Long's Peak and the Grand Canyon rim to rim before getting into the harder questions: what it means to change who you are being rather than just what you do, why marriage and parenting are the truest mirrors a leader has, and what Jeff says to the person who feels stuck. His answer is simple. Most stuck people are being hard on themselves and mislabeling their own strength.
